Marmalade vs Saffron yellow
Marmalade (Benjamin Moore) and Saffron yellow (RAL Classic) come from different manufacturers. Marmalade reads as beige, while Saffron yellow reads as beige-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 6-point LRV gap — 56 for Marmalade vs 50 for Saffron yellow — means Marmalade will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 10.9 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Marmalade vs Saffron yellow Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Marmalade on one side and Saffron yellow on the other.
Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
